APL analysis needs renames and a selection of atoms from each resname for each lipid type. But I'm not sure how to choose atoms for each lipid type.

If you cannot change MEMBPLUGIN configuration file, then "membplugin_lipid" and "membplugin_lipids" will not include DUPS or DUPC residue names ("Use custom lipid resnames" does not change these atom selection macros).

We will consider your new feature proposal of being able to enable and disable atomselection update in future releases.

I am trying to calculate the SCD of lipids near an adsorbed peptide (5 angstrons, for example). However, due to the bilayer's dynamic, the lipids around the peptide change every time and I need to update the selection on each analyzed frame. Is it possible to update the selection in SCD calculations with MEMBPLUGIN? Regards.

X, Y and Z are spatial coordinates and U(X,Y,Z) are the written values in the file (thickness or deformation in this case). X, Y and Z coordinates are represented as 3D ordered regular-spaced grid points, but they are not directly written in the file. xdel, ydel and zdel are the spacing between points on each one of the axes and they are written in the header of the file. Minima of X, Y and Z (xorg, yorg and zorg) is also writen...Ismael Rodriguez EspigaresMon, 07 Jan 2019 20:01:58 -0000https://sourceforge.net/p/membplugin/discussion/plotting/thread/89e8f9c2/?limit=25#0f5e/6bf1/6727/b4f4/b228/5bd5https://sourceforge.net/p/membplugin/discussion/plotting/thread/89e8f9c2/?limit=25#0f5e/6bf1/6727/b4f4Dear Yasser Almeida, zn = 2 and zdel = 2.0 is hardcoded to workarround the fact that DX files does not support 2D data and to ease visualization in VMD by setting the Z axis width of the represented VOLMAP to 2 angstroms. The value of thickness/deformation is repeated with identical value "zn = 2" times along the z axis.Ismael Rodriguez EspigaresMon, 07 Jan 2019 18:59:33 -0000https://sourceforge.net/p/membplugin/discussion/plotting/thread/89e8f9c2/?limit=25#0f5e/6bf1/6727/b4f4https://sourceforge.net/p/membplugin/discussion/plotting/thread/89e8f9c2/?limit=25#0f5e/6bf1/6727/b4f4/b228Dear Ismael, I am affraid I still don't get the idea of the format. Attached is my .dx file. It contains 2x the values. My first basic question is, are those all Z values? If I split the file, the values of the second half is not identical to the first. Is there a way to get the X, Y, (averaged) Z values directly?

This property identifies residues automatically using connectivity. In this specific case, VMD has failed to guess connectivity creating hundreds of fragments with individual "residue" numbers. Total area per lipid = Total area / number of lipids in the system Hence, the mess in the Total area per lipid is caused by unreliable connectivity...Ismael Rodriguez EspigaresMon, 12 Nov 2018 22:17:18 -0000https://sourceforge.net/p/membplugin/tickets/6/?limit=25#e717https://sourceforge.net/p/membplugin/tickets/6/?limit=25#81b8Updated wiki to add in requeriments that extremly deformed membranes may lead to leaflet assignment issues.Ismael Rodriguez EspigaresMon, 12 Nov 2018 22:01:09 -0000https://sourceforge.net/p/membplugin/tickets/6/?limit=25#81b8https://sourceforge.net/p/membplugin/tickets/6/?limit=25#81b8Updated wiki to add in requeriments that extremly deformed membrains may lead to leaflet assignment issues.Ismael Rodriguez EspigaresMon, 12 Nov 2018 21:06:51 -0000https://sourceforge.net/p/membplugin/tickets/6/?limit=25#81b8https://sourceforge.net/p/membplugin/wiki/AreaPerLipid/AreaPerLipidIsmael Rodriguez EspigaresMon, 12 Nov 2018 21:04:24 -0000https://sourceforge.net/p/membplugin/wiki/AreaPerLipid/https://sourceforge.net/p/membplugin/wiki/GeneralRequirements/GeneralRequirementsIsmael Rodriguez EspigaresMon, 12 Nov 2018 21:01:58 -0000https://sourceforge.net/p/membplugin/wiki/GeneralRequirements/https://sourceforge.net/p/membplugin/tickets/5/?limit=25#f096We cannot reproduce the error without the data.

These also might happen when using PDB files as topology. Also, your system must be wrapped in a way that molecules in PBC bounderies are not broken. Please, check requeriments regarding wrapping and loading topology in VMD at [GeneralRequirements]...Ismael Rodriguez EspigaresThu, 19 Jul 2018 17:46:03 -0000https://sourceforge.net/p/membplugin/discussion/general/thread/c5f77873/?limit=25#4ac9/2b18
